Each month, thousands upon thousands of U.S. teens become eligible for their first driver's licenses. Most are very understandably excited by this new development, while their parents (also understandably) are rather worried by it. So much so, in fact, that a Harris Poll survey commissioned by Chevrolet shows that parents of teens are more worried by their teens driving than any other area of parental stress, including sex, drugs, and academic performance.

Luckily, Chevrolet is here to help. How? With two models named to U.S. News & World Report's 2017 "Best Cars for Teens" list: the 2017 Cruze and the 2018 Malibu. 3Birds Template has more details on why these models did so well for you here.

2017 Chevrolet Cruze (Best Car for Teens $20K to $25K)

It's easy to see why the 2017 Cruze took home first place in its category. It's not only affordable, it also boasts an above-average reliability rating from J.D. Power, it's available as a sedan or a hatchback, it scored highly in both NHTSA and IIHS crash tests, and it comes standard with the Chevrolet Teen Driver control system—an innovative system that helps keep younger drivers focused and safe when they're out on the road.

2018 Chevrolet Malibu (Best Car for Teens $30K to $35K) 

Similarly, the 2018 Malibu was ranked highly thanks to its Teen Driver system, as well as its top-tier crash test ratings, reliability scores, and advanced safety features like forward automatic braking, lane keep assist, and a 360-degree parking camera (all the better to help new drivers, even at slow speeds). 

At 3Birds Template, we're parents too, and we want to make sure that any adventure your kids take in your vehicle is a safe one.
